Just like that, 9 yrs of medical training at @BIDMChealth is in the books. It was an incredible ride at a place with coworkers who are like family now. Sad to leave but super excited to join the interventional cardiology/structural heart team at @BannerHealth Northern Colorado!
Recent dental infection, blood cultures + for Enterococcus, new heart failure. "Scarce remnants of normal aortic valve architecture" poetic wording by @the_gelf. @AKrawisz@doncutlipMD#echofirst More images in comments.
Why does ABIM charge $3,000 for the interventional cardiology board exam? One wonders what their operational costs are... Effectively a monopoly - perhaps should be regulated as such.
Treated the first #TRILUMINATE#TriClip percutaneous tricuspid repair patient in New England here at @BIDMC_health and he is doing great! Congrats to our innovative #StructuralHeart team on this milestone!
